Immortal of the Nine Realms

Chapter 750: The Ability to Endure What Ordinary People Cannot

Zhou Bufan took a deep breath and smiled. "Daoist Fang, it seems there is some sort of misunderstanding. As long as we can resolve this misunderstanding, everything will be fine."

He paused. "In fact, We of the Purple Yang Dao Sect aren’t here out of our own volition, but rather because of a command from the Nine Yang Dao Sect."

Fang Chen chuckled lightly. "The Nine Yang Dao Sect?"

"Exactly." Zhou Bufan suddenly felt a surge of confidence. "It was indeed the order from the Nine Yang Dao Sect that brought us here. If we have offended anyone, perhaps we should have a senior from the Nine Yang Dao Sect come forward so we can sit down and discuss it properly."

"Daoist Zhou, do you not know that the Nine Yang Dao Sect is also taking orders from the Great Expansion Dao Sect?" Fang Chen sighed softly. "Perhaps you’ve been living in isolation for too long and are unaware. Xu Qingsong, a Fusion Realm cultivator from the Great Expansion Dao Sect, wants to force me into the open, which is why you have all become the vanguard."

Zhou Bufan and the others were taken aback.

Did they hear that correctly? A Fusion Realm cultivator?! And from the Great Expansion Dao Sect?!

The Fusion Realm was the final realm of the Middle Three Realms. A realm that is one step away from the first realm in the legendary Upper Three Realms—the Dao Union Realm.

Every local family in the Central Continent was held by Dao Union Realm cultivators. Each of these individuals was a formidable figure who ruled over their territories.

Just a single move could shake the vast lands!

The Great Expansion Dao Sect was one of the three major sects in the world. Though it ranked last among them, it was still a genuine immortal manor.

Even their Fusion Realm cultivators would be treated as honored guests by local manors!

Zhou Bufan realized that they had seemingly gotten involved in something serious. The Ancestor Fang before them likely had an extraordinary background!

Fang Chen smiled and waved his hand. "It’s fine, it’s fine. Since Daoist Zhou is unaware of these matters, don’t think too much about it. Just sit down and enjoy the tea. As for the Nine Yang Dao Sect, I have already sent someone to convey the message. They will come here to observe the ceremony in a few days. Any misunderstandings can be resolved then."

With that, Fang Chen left with his companions. @@@@

Zhou Bufan was about to speak up, but the black paper figure beat him to it. "If you do not enjoy drinking tea, you may stay for a meal instead."

Zhou Bufan's expression changed dramatically, and he immediately sat down and picked up the teacup to drink.

Not only did he drink himself, but he also urged the others to fill their cups while secretly transmitting a message, "We, as cultivators, have lived for hundreds or even thousands of years. The path to enlightenment has been incredibly difficult, and we have encountered all sorts of humiliations. To endure what ordinary people cannot endure is to seize the opportunity to rise above. Do not give them any excuse to take action against us."

At the Immortal Qin Clan.

Qin Feng and Qin Xuan rushed back to the Qin residence and headed straight for Chu Lan’s room.

"Mother!"

Seeing the two of them return, Chu Lan was somewhat surprised. "Aren’t you both cultivating at the Grand Thousand Dao Sect?"

Qin Feng hurriedly replied, "The Grand Thousand Dao Sect has encountered trouble!"

Chu Lan’s expression changed slightly. "What kind of trouble?"

Qin Xuan shot Qin Feng a look and reprimanded, "Brother, can you even speak properly? What do you mean by 'trouble'? Let me explain."

She then quickly recounted the situation. After listening, Chu Lan felt her heart go cold and her expression turned serious. "Is what you’re saying true? Sir Fang is currently at Grand Thousand Dao Sect, and he’s going to oversee the ceremony to rename the Grand Thousand Dao Sect back to the Three Thousand Dao Sect?"

"Yes." Qin Xuan nodded. "We came back this time to ask you and Dad to go to the ceremony together. Should we inform the ancestor as well?"

"This matter is quite significant. Your father and I will definitely attend, especially since Sir Fang saved Feng’er’s life. As for the ancestor, let your father handle that," said Chu Lan.

She hurriedly left to find the head of the Qin family to explain the situation.

After hearing the news, the head of the Qin Family was equally shocked, and the two of them promptly went to visit the residence of the Qin Clan’s ancestor.

The ancestor of the Qin Clan stood with his hands clasped behind his back, facing the flowerbeds in the courtyard. "What is it?"

The head of the Qin Family quickly relayed the entire story.

After a long silence, the ancestor finally spoke. "This matter is not trivial. The Qin Clan can go, but we will not attend the ceremony. We just want to observe the reactions of the three major Dao sects and see if we can make any connection with any important figures there."

The couple exchanged surprised glances, clearly taken aback by the ancestor’s response.
